depends if you have a two door or 4 door... the 4 doors can be disconnected right at about the frame rail... but is all hard plastic like line... the 2 doors go from the front all the way to the back... at least on the ones ive seen... may have been a year thing that made them different... if it doesnt come apart at the frame maybe 6 inches down it then its one whole part...
